Digital filtering is one of the main fundamental aspect of digital signal processing (DSP).Finite Impulse Response (FIR) digital filter design involves multi parameter optimization, on which the existing optimization Sifters and Sieves algorithm may does not work efficiently.Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm is a bio-inspired optimization
LINC-PINT Inhibited Malignant Progression of Bladder Cancer by Targeting miR-155-5p [Retraction]

Continuous Coastal Monitoring with an Automated Terrestrial Lidar Scanner
This paper details the collection, geo-referencing, and data processing algorithms for a fully-automated, permanently deployed terrestrial lidar system for coastal monitoring.The lidar is fixed on a 4-m structure located on a shore-backing dune in Duck, North Carolina.Each hour, the lidar collects a three-dimensional framescan of the nearshore regi
Effect of welding processes and consumables on fatigue crack growth behaviour of armour grade quenched and tempered steel joints
Quenched and Tempered (Q&T) steels are widely used in the construction of military vehicles due to its high strength to weight ratio and high hardness.These steels are prone to hydrogen induced cracking (HIC) in the heat affected zone (HAZ) after welding.The use of austenitic stainless steel (ASS) consumables to weld the above steel was the only av
